12/12/2014 - CASCADE IS RETROFITTING THE ORIGINAL R... The link to the official release is below. Cascade is asking that all existing owners of R helmets send the helmets directly back to cascade for a retrofit. Goto: www.CASCADELACROSSE.com for more information on the existing R helmet modification.

IF YOU WANT TO ORDER A NEW CASCADE R HELMET THERE WILL BE A HUGE WAITING LIST BECAUSE OF THIS RETROFIT........GET YOUR ORDER IN NOW !!!!!!!!!!!

Cascade states that they will begin production of new Cascade R helmets that meet all NOCSAE standards on or around the 18th of December and will begin delivery in early January. There will be a massive waiting list building up so if you need an R helmet for the coming season we STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT YOU GET YOUR ORDER IN AS SOON AS POSSIBLE !!!!!!

listen, the r is considered the best helmet in the world and the cs youth is for beginners that don't want to spend money on a helmet and duke uses the t2 because theyre sponsored by warrior and cant use any other helmet

I want to say that it looks cheaply made... The chin piece looks very likely to snap and the piece that holds the facemask onto the side of the helmet has shrunk....By the looks of it the pro7 is better quality

Cascade puts their gear through some of the most extensive tests in all of sports. If it was cheap they wouldn't put their name on it, and if there are any defects they will hook you up with a new one no problem. This isn't Easton were talking about.
